Singing in the Forest

Jack & I are doing ok.  We thank all of you for your support & prayers. As people come & go we hear stories of Tim, our son's adventures with fishing & logging his 2 loves. When he came off of the ventilator, he just was singing & singing.  I started remembering how I would hear this song coming through the forest, and would ask Jack,"what is that?" and he would tell me with a laugh,"that's Tim, singing and then a big yell "timber", as he fell another tree.  I would always hold my breath and listen until he would start his saw to begin cleaning up the limbs.  I know this strange pain I have deep in my belly will some day fade, but for now we have to walk this path and see how much we loved him.  Some times we are not aware of our depth of love and admiration we have for our children until we soul search and step back and look at them from a different eye.   Joyce
